    Raising Cane’s rocks. Solid sweet tea and lemonade, great sauce, crinkle cut fries. Good stuff

    While we’re talking fast food, Taco Bell decimates my entire body but Del Taco is totally fine. I wish i could have the Taco Bell menu made by Del Taco

    The new McDonald's tenders are really bad.

    Del > Bell imo

    I was out on Canes for a bit after a noticeable drop in quality but I went to Canes last weekend after a drunk night at the tiki bar and that box combo hit insanely hard.

    Worse than they were in the 2000s but better than the last two Canes trips I had

    These and Cane's are in Orlando. I might need to take a road trip this weekend.

    I forgot about those old strips. They were so good. Do you remember the Mighty Wings in 2013-2014? Those were interesting.

    People don't know how good they have it. I tell people how McNuggets used to have grey meat with rubber pieces in it and they don't believe me.

    dying to try jollibees but there isn’t one remotely close. dave’s hot chicken is probably my favorite “fast food” chicken

    Haven’t been to a Cane’s in a while, but yeah their tenders are the best in fast food. They always strike a nice balance between juicy chicken, crispy skin, and portion consistency. Their only downfall, which I think some would argue is a feature not a bug, is that they only have one sauce. I have on occasion taken it home to use my own sauces

    We are spoiled. A gas station started selling hot chicken and it gained so much popularity they began to franchise it around the area. We have a ton of great “fast food” hot chicken places now.

  11. Dave’s is also very good. I think Cane’s has the better chicken but Dave’s has better flavors. Their cauliflower “chicken” sandwich is the best I have ever had by far

    Another one I need to try next time I go into the city. However, my tolerance for "hot" is limited.

    They opened up two Canes in my area within a month of each other. One is up the street from the original Asads. Idk if the quality control is bad but the chicken I got was funky and I think the sauce there is bland as hell, especially compared to something like Asads or Daves Hot Chicken.

    Just be careful, Wiger from Doughboys had to go to the emergency room for is b-hole after eating Dave's.

    I am sure the chicken is good but Jollibee's spaghetti looks pretty nasty.

    Coincidentally a Jollibee opened up in the same strip mall. I had it once and thought it was fine. Have not been back to try the spaghetti

    I went to raising Cane’s a few months ago and it was pretty mid. It could just be the location though. A Dave’s hot chicken also opened up near me, but I have yet to try it.

    I live a 2 minute walk from a gas store chicken chain. Dodge's. They're only in the south and my town has the only location in Florida. Chicken, Jojos, corndogs, pizza sticks, egg rolls. Great 2am drunk food.

    I was in Japan a month ago and the food from 7-Eleven there was ridiculously good.

    Canes just opened here last year. Loved it the first time but it’s been diminishing returns I think just because of the one sauce. Let me get some buffalo and ranch with em.

    My friend swears by Krispy Krunchy Chicken but I will not eat at a gas station.

    Some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had was from a gas station in New Jersey.
